Work has continued on the GIS dormitory project with walls up and the roofing framework in place. The dormitory will afford girls a chance to continue their education past the compulsory grade 6 required by the Nigerian government.

Since the 2018 dedication of the exam hall that houses the computer lab, students at Graceland International School have been able to enjoy actual real-time computer instruction on individual machines. The original lab housed 18 desktop computers.
One of the real challenges faced by our friends in Gusau, Nigeria is the fact that they live about 150 miles from the encroaching Sahara Desert. With the shifting climate trends, hotter, more dry weather extremes are a fact of life for about six months of the year. The issue of powdery and/or gritty dust is an everyday occurrence...and it settles everywhere. It is extremely difficult to get rid of it by sweeping or dusting- hence the computer “dust bags” shown in a previous post.
Despite challenges, the construction of the girls’ dormitory is progressing. A second installment of funds has been sent and received.
Our latest project: a girls' dormitory, kitchen, and dining hall at Graceland International School.
